Just got in. Sleep now.

Grandmother woke me an hour ago. Two hours of sleep isn't much. I need to shower. Eat something. Open the shop. I'm tired. Definitely worth the lack of sleep. Never been in a nightclub that was so energetic. Was nice talking to the boy on his breaks.

Shop is open. Have had a steady stream of customers. Grandmother's creams are selling well. Need to have a talk with grandmother about going away for a few days. Maybe a week. Not clear on how long the trip is meant to be. Should call the boy to find out. He needs his sleep though.

Shop is quiet. Grandmother brought me lunch of fasole bătută, and mititei. I'm ravenous today. I don't think I even tasted the food. I spoke with her about the trip. She is wary of me leaving with a bunch of college boys. She knows I can take care of myself.

Now I just need to take care of the shop.

Just got off the phone with Mrs. McCormick who owns the little shop next door. She promised to have her grandson come in and check on grandmother while I'm gone. I have met him a few times. He seems to be okay even if he annoys me by asking silly questions about whether the magic is real.

It is real.

I know that it is. Many cultures believe in medicine people. There are many tales of witches and wizards. I have not come across any in my travels.

To shut him up I gave him a book on such things. He will read it and keep grandmother company in the store. So I won't complain. Too much.

Got a text from the boy telling me the tickets are confirmed. I will call him during a lull and see what the cost was. Looks like I'm on my way to Vegas.
